  3. Failed to connect 'docker for windows' with hyper-v (Stopped docker service too)
  4. Ensured that flag hypervisorlaunchtype is set into Auto in boot flags
  5. Replaced MobyLinuxVM.vhdx and mobylinux.iso from another working computer in safe mode considering bugs in docker update images (using stable version of docker for windows)

Perform the following:

docker run --privileged -it -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock jongallant/ubuntu-docker-client
docker run --net=host --ipc=host --uts=host --pid=host -it --security-opt=seccomp=unconfined --privileged --rm -v /:/host alpine /bin/sh
chroot /host

Now you are in, ls the file system.

If you find a better way let me know.
